Hi Daisy Of course it hurts. It's like you're doing kegels. Did the PT stretch you after your stim. I had great success with biofeedback, but I ONLY used it to learn to relax. If your muscles already tight, you should not be using the stim in my opinion.Anne Mcgee wrote: Sounds like you should contact your PT and talk to him/her, Anne--> I have been going to the Phyical therapist for pelvic floor stimulation.> I have been there only five times.
